Paddle shifters do that too, but
I guess you can never replace that

There is still an ever so slight electronic delay that is totally eliminated with a manual transmission.
Most paddles also dont allow for individual gear selection... just up or down... with an old school standard you can safely skip gears if you really want to.

Again... that is a TARGA top.... not a T-Top... they ARE NOT the same thing.
T tops have 2 separate panels and a "T" bar connecting the windshield to the rear fixed roof.

Better gas, better control of the car, and def more fun to drive.
Hell, I drive a Civic Si which is by no means "fast" but its a blast to drive.

An auto ZL1 is an absolute travesty. The thought makes me cringe. I am shocked Chevy even offers this version. Please keep the auto for the Camaro base V6 models, leave the manual beasts to those that can actually drive a car instead of a computer doing all the work.

Yep especially in more economical cars with smaller engines, like VW Golfs, Civics, etc, manuals are way better because youre more in control in terms of staying in the sweet spot
manual >>>>>>>>>>
unless its a DCT thats the only time you should CONSIDER an automatic
